NRC’s emergency response takes a people-centred approach to addressing the acute needs of civilians most adversely affected by the impact of ongoing hostilities, restrictions, and impeded access to basic services. This document sets out the framework by which NRC will respond, based on individual experiences of displacement, with regard for the capacities and choices available at a given time, linked to the conflict dynamics and political context.
NRC’s response aims to maximise our capacity to address acute humanitarian needs and adapt as the situation on the ground evolves. Our approach includes advocating with and to donors and the wider humanitarian community to improve conditions for humanitarian actors and affected populations. NRC works as closely as possible with partners to ensure the fastest, most efficient, and most conflict-sensitive delivery of assistance to all people in need.
While NRC will also engage on early recovery efforts in Gaza, this plan focuses on the most urgent humanitarian needs.
